I had wanted to get my aunt some nice personalized notecards for Christmas, but from most places they're crazy expensive. So, I was really happy when I found these, since the design looked perfect for her. Unfortunately, they did not turn out to be the classy looking gift I'd hoped for. They're not terrible, but the claddagh is not embossed gold like I thought it was; it's just a clip art type drawing. There are no embossed elements at all on the card, which for some reason I thought there were. I guess that's my main problem- that I could've made these easily myself with some notecard stock and my laser printer. And, on the back of each card it says "personalizationmall.com" with an ugly barcode. Ugh. I've seen nice gifts from this site, but this is not one of them.
